Logosol Smart Log Splitter

From the moment go it was a success. just had to find a log to fit it into and get on with the job. Nice little feature was being able to chop sticks. my brother in law was impressed with it and as a result my wife sent him one as a birthday presant through your company which went without a hitch.

I would recommend this to anyone with a woodburning fire

Make sure the logs you want to split are dry. I tried to split some hard wood logs that were rather wet and the splitter can become wedged and a bit of a chave to get it free. I am also concerned about the hard plastic bush that the weight hits to drive the splitter, it is showing signs of cracking. (not sure about spares). To be fair i have used the log splitter 4-5 times a week for the last 5mths. I am very happy with it. Tudor

This is the most useful bit of kit we have had in years! makes such short work of log splitting and we can both use it without difficulty. super fast delivery too - thank you.

This splitter works well. it does need a very firm base . rather than the log in which to mount the splitter i made a solid wooden base unless you have a perfectly level surface it tends to "walk"and thishas to be avoided for the splitter to work perfectly. It saves a great deal of bending and swinging a heavy axe.

This is a 100% fit for purpose product with no gimmicks. Quality built,ease of assembly and use and easily transportable. i would pay for an optional well made wooden storage box - just like the excellent cardboard pack it arrived in. wholly satisfied with the product. (tip) when splitting kindling i place a piece of wood below where the main blade would usually strike the base log so as to stop the splitting device always striking the rubber impact cushion.The piece of wood needs to be slightly thicker than the rubber impact cushion.

Good value for money

Well made, easy to use - the base may be an issue for some - does what it says on the tin!

Excellent product so far. Pricey but cheaper than back treatment if you get injured using a splitting maul!

I saw this demonstrated at a county show and was impressed with the demo. The proof is always in how it works for you. This is probably one of the best purchases i have ever made. Easy to set up, easy to use and very effective. Has split everything i have tried very easily including some gnarled old apple wood which resisted conventional axe cutting. Would highly recommend this.

Excellent & very easy to use

David 03/01/2012 20:00:05

Easy to build and easy to use good for all ages as i let my mum try it she is 76 year old and said that there was no effort in using it it is a lot handier then using an axe and quicker

Splits logs very easily but you must have a very solid base.A large log tends to slide about so i made a purpose built base with a flat top and this works perfectly.

The smart splitter is a much safer and more efficient alternative to the hammer and wedge or splitting axe. My problem was that i had some old very knotty tree rings with the grain curving in different directions which had defeated a conventional wedge and hammer/splitting axe. With the smart splitter you can hold odd shaped logs in such a way that you always split along the grain. Just a quick couple of taps with the weight to get it started and hold it in position ready for some serious hammering. I sometimes had to reposition the wedge to exploit cracks from different directions but it did the job. Another thing is no more stuck wedges! The smart splitter weight can be slid up the guide rod to hit the stop nut at the end and knock the wedge out! this tool design is a case of brains over brawn - highly recommended.

The best axe replacement i have ever bought! if you have a log burner it's a must!!!

This products is well-designed and of high-quality manufacture. It is straightforward to assemble and easy to use. i bought it because arthritis in my wrists was making it difficult for me to use an axe and maul - with the smartsplitter i am able to split logs far faster than i could manage with an axe or maul, and the results are more controllable. Large logs that would present problems using even a maul can be split earily by simply by repeatedly dropping the weight. highly recommended.

Fantastic!! Used it to-day for the first time. Had to get the chainsaw out to cut up a base from a felled tree, after that though the set-up was a doddle and after a couple of hours of using the logsplitter i had a wood shed (large) 3/4 full, with no bad back due to swinging an axe.
